    In front of the beach. Outdoor table arrangement. Great vibe in the evening. Three piece classical band playing in private basis upon the request. Reasonable prices. I have tried out most of the items in à la carte menu. Good portion. Excellence service. Really delicious meals. Fresh fruit juices was not available.

    Good place to hangout with your family & friends. Have the beach access. Beautiful view can be experienced in the evening. A Calypso band is there sometimes. Good food portions for reasonable prices. Relatively quick delivering time. Friendly service. Dine in, take away and delivery are available. Ample parking spaces are there. Can be crowded on weekends and holidays.

    If you're in Panadura and craving an exceptional dining experience, look no further than Navro Seafood Family Restaurant. This gem is an absolute must-visit! During our recent visit, we indulged in a feast that left us utterly impressed. We savored the Chicken Chopsuey Rice, Deviled Octopus, and Grilled Seafood Combination, and each dish surpassed our expectations. The Chicken Chopsuey Rice boasted a perfect harmony of fresh vegetables and delicate chicken pieces, providing a delightful burst of flavors with every bite. The Deviled Octopus was a revelation—juicy, flavorful, and expertly fried to perfection. However, the highlight of our meal was undoubtedly the Grilled Seafood Combination. This unique platter showcased a variety of impeccably cooked seafood, including a generous portion of tuna, succulent prawns, tender cuttlefish, and a sizable crab. Each component was bursting with freshness and flavor, leaving us craving for more. Beyond the exceptional culinary offerings, we were equally impressed by the reasonable prices, considering the top-notch quality of both the food and service. Navro Seafood Family Restaurant truly offers an unbeatable value proposition. If you're seeking a culinary adventure that tantalizes your taste buds without breaking the bank, Navro Seafood Family Restaurant is the place to be. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.!

    The place is quite big. Nice surrounding. Can walk on the beach. It's nice when it comes to sunset. Have upstairs also. Liquor available. You can bring bottles from the outside also. But have to pay cocage. The meal is tasty. The only bad thing about this is customer service is poor.

    Food is good. Nice atmosphere. But need to maintain this place a bit. During the night time it looks nice with the lights. They serve beer. Tried a fish stew which was very delicious. Reasonable price for the food. This place looks nice during the night time with the lights. Plenty of parking space available.

    Had a terrible outing in there, the staff was so annoying and terrible service,no customer friendly environment . Food wasn’t good as well and took a long time to prepare and most importantly they don’t follow the COVID-19 precautions and steps properly. Not recommending anyone to visit this place

    This place has nice view of the sea and quite big space to hanging out with friends or anything else. Little bit busy some times but nice surrounding. Liquor is available. Foods are tasty and have big portion enough. Foods is in average price in this restaurant. Can walk on the beach.

    Really bad service and food. They take a long time to prepare the food. The presentation of the food is awlful. They don't follow COVID 19 Precautions. They don't wear masks even when serving the food. This place could possibly be a COVID 19 HOTSPOT. Wouldn't recommend this place to ANYONE.

    Had a really bad experience there, the food took too long to prepare, and even then the food tasted awful and the presentation was even worse. The prices maybe cheap but they charge service charges to match that. And the staff don't even follow COVID 19 Precautions. Half of the staff didn't even masks when serving our food. The staff were arrogant big headed people who wouldn't reason. I wouldn't recommend this place even to my enemies. This place is a disgrace to Panadura even.

    I rarely say something like this to place to a restaurant. THE FOOD WAS BAD. THE CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS ZERO. And the audacity of the waiters is something that you can't handle. Just because I couldn't pronounce a dish in Sinhala the waiter laughed at me. And then even he brought the wrong dish after I specifically showed him the dish in the menu. And I even found a piece of hair in that dish, after I showed it to the waiter he just removed it from my plate and went away didn't even give me a refund. And even after that the room charges were outrageously exaggerated. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND NAVRO TO ANYONE. THIS SO CALL SEA FOOD RESTAURANT GIVES A BAD NAME FOR THIS BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY SRI LANKA. I HOPE THEY TEAR THIS RESTAURANT DOWN.

    It has a nice view of the beach. A bit crowded most of the time. Food is great and have big portions. Ample parking spaces too. But the washroom is a bit bad. Looks like a public washroom.

    It would be nice if the service was made a little more efficient. There is no shortage of food. However, there is a well-diversified menu. The soup was wonderful, ice water was provided before the rice and other things were served, which was much appreciated. I chose the chocolate mousse for dessert, it was so delicious.

    Usually we visit this place often. As it is located near the beach the atmosphere is good with the sea view. Food also was good. Good for having a beer while spending time. Sometimes the fresh juices aren't available.

  • 1/5 Anushka R. 3 years ago on Google
    Never order any kind of food rather than mixed seafood fried rice. All the other types taste like same.Actually tasteless. (Watery taste) I ordered "sea food marinara" seafood and creamy pasta and a chopsy sea food fried rice, both were really bad.Pasta dish was like boiled pasta soaked in a creamy sauce. We had to request & long wait for fresh water & tissues.

    Worst of all. Beautiful place but the service is terrific. Cutlery and plates didn't see water for months. Washrooms didn't clean and very uncomfortable. Worst place that I have ever been.

  • 1/5 Sachith R. 1 year ago on Google
    WON'T recommend this place at all! Came here on a recommendation of a friend. We ordered Chinese Chicken & Egg Drop Soup, one Mixed Sea Food Fried Rice and one Thai Chicken Rice. But instead of Thai Chicken Rice, they served a Thai SeaFood Rice. We were waiting for like 25 minutes after finishing our soup. We didn't re-order the above mentioned dish because we didn't want to wait another 30 minutes more. In the Tomato Sauce, there were several ants floating🤦🏻‍♂️. (I have taken a photo but won't post it) Even though we did call and show it to the waiter, he didn't even apologize. He just went back to kitchen and refilled the cup. We ordered some sodas as our beverages but waiter couldn't remember it even after we payed the bill. Gents washroom hasn't cleaned in ages. We were totally disappointed. Will NOT RECOMMEND for anyone.

    If you're looking for a fantastic dining experience, this great restaurant is definitely worth a visit. The food was absolutely delicious, and the prices were very reasonable. The menu offered a range of options, including appetizers, entrees, and desserts. The appetizers were all fantastic, with flavourful and unique dishes such as grilled octopus and roasted eggplant dip. The entrees were equally impressive, with a range of options from seafood to meat to vegetarian. The flavours were rich and well-balanced, and the portions were generous. The prices were also very reasonable, considering the quality of the food and service. Overall, our dining experience at this great restaurant was truly memorable, and we would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for delicious food, excellent service, and reasonable prices.

    Nice place by the beach. Unfortunately food was not that great. It tastes like old rice we get. I went to this place after a recommendation, but I won't recommend this place for just for food. Heard there are some other exciting things such as a Calypso band, since I went on a poya day(10th September 2022) for a lunch it wasn't available. Even though the food wasn't great, customer service was good. There were some friendly staff members. Ample parking available in front of the restaurant.

    They used to be having good food for long time. With the latest experience I had with them is kind of bad. Do not go there on weekend or holidays where it is crowded. They dont think about the quality of food just serving as soon as possible. Ultimately we got refund for some dishes where they have not prepared well. Location is good. Calm and right in front of the ocean.

    Don't go here with your family or children. People smoke everywhere and when complaining it to the manager he said to go to the VIP room to take lunch.If anyone wants to smoke or having drinks they must go to a smoking room or smoking area not the regular customers. Plates are very dirty. Not recommended for pregnant mothers or family with children.

    Lovely place surrounded by the Panadura beach. Food is amazing quality. I used to come here many times and most of the time I ordered Navro mixed fried rice. They have never dissapointed me! Each and every day I ordered that, the quality was never been dropped. Regualr portion was completely enough for more than 1 person. May be enough for two(2) persons. One of the best places in Panadura area to visit with your family or your favourite.

    Nice place, but bad service. Although they are opened at 11.00 a.m., wanted us to stay till 12.00 p.m. to order food until they open the Kitchen. Negative response each time when we try to order something.

  • 3/5 Randini J. 2 years ago on Google
    It used to be the best place to go out for dinner in the area, but this is the first time I went after covid . The place is awful not kept well at all. The wash rooms are disgusting you can't even think of going in . The kitchen next to it is not of good hygiene either. Need to pull themselves up back to the previous standards.

  • 4/5 Diniru P. 10 months ago on Google
    Decent place to visit for a decent price. Food is good enough for the price we pay, the portions were adequate as well. Good. Update :- Went here again today for dinner service. Couldn’t find anyone for table service for like 35-40 minutes. Pretty frustrating though.

  • 4/5 Tharindu W. 1 year ago on Google

    Don't come if you are hungry. If you need to just pass the time without any food, the best place to visit. Serving peoples don't care about your order and they serve when they need. More than 1.5 hours just for a Thai Sea food small rice 🤣 and still waiting.

  • 4/5 Chamikara J. 3 years ago on Google
    We went there for lunch en route to Kalutara. The food was quite good and portion size was value for money. You get an amazing view of the sea and the beach. It seems it is a popular place among the locals as it was getting crowded on the day we visited. Must be an ideal place to enjoy food with the sunset.

    Nice place to have a dinner under the night sky with fully stars, Foods are delicious. The prices are reasonable. It's better for family dinners. But also others. Have to reserve a table before the arrival, because the people are always. Good and recommend this place. Hope to visit again.

    Nice beach front property. Really like to go there when im around. Relaxing place with lots & lots of sea breeze. Food is okay. Table service is also good. Whats troubling me when im there is the terrible pronounced English of their Indian staff. Little disturbing at times .

  • 1/5 ජයසිංහ �. 7 months ago on Google • 2 reviews
    100% disappointment.The worst food ever provided.Mix chopsey had only a couple of small prawns and some chicken which was full of carrots.Battered cuttlefish was so bad that we hardly ate.They had used bunrnt oil which is tasteless.I never recommend Navro for any friend or business colleague. Spoilt the whole dinner time.
